Cheech

Assuming I get back from my Virginia trip on time (should be coming back Thursday), count me in.

I'm primed and ready for action. Got my stuff all packed for my trip this Sunday, I really need to get out of the house. A suggestion: Winking Lizard in either Polaris or Bethel. I've got a hankerin' for some good beer.

and I just woke up from what should have been a quickie hour nap. Dammit.

For the model year, the plastics look to be in excellent condition. Apart from taking Earache up on his offer, I'd get an account on KatRiders.com immediately if not sooner. There are a few quirky things about the pre's (88-97) that you might want to look into wrenching out now that it's winter and you have time. They can also handle any technical questions that you have that we may not be able to answer. Keep it nice and easy for the first year, and don't come to Coshocton without frame sliders, swingarm sliders and an airbag.

Girls like that usually charge extra. Implants aint cheap, dontcha know.

it's fucking on.

I want to hit my eyes with a hammer after reading that sidebar, you really have to do something about that color scheme.

Anyone interested in seeing it in Easton tonight? I can only make the late show (10:30), but could have a beer or something afterwards...

I see your vid, and raise you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_jUk8q923c&feature=related friggin copyright police already took out the audio track, I have the unadulterated version on my PC somewhere.

I have a feeling wherever Jim Henson is right now, he just threw up the horns. Even better, it's one of the first videos for 1080p (although my compy won't handle it well, 720p fullscreen looked almost as good.)

Keep firing, assholes!

I have a few stories like that from Prague. I LOVE drunken bar adventures.

For the record, I hate trans-atlantic flights. I completely hit a wall at 9:30 and went home. Beer was EXCELLENT, I picked up a growler that just might end up at Pratt's for the game today. Yota, thanks for coming out even thought I just missed you, I feel bad for talking you into it then leaving.

Well, I think you're taking an extreme viewpoint. Nowhere in my anecdote did I say they were slaughtering them for no reason, they were enemy soldiers that had engaged them. You might argue there's some grey area in that they were captured and disarmed, but at the end of the day they had engaged the Soviet forces and thus identified themselves as enemy combatants. What this is actually showing is by standing up and using the only thing that these people devoutly and completely follow against them, it might be possible to scare the fuck out of them so they settle their skinny brown asses down. I wish we used this as a tactic.

There are some pretty glaring differences from the yarn I spun and the US ROE as I (a civilian) understand them to be. The one that comes out first is the willingness of the Soviets to use -slam against the enemy soldiers. If you truly "don't give a fuck about what the world thinks", this is the reasoable and proper way, IMHO, to fight an unreasonable and improper religious threat. Take the only thing they believe and turn it against them. However, if we actually attempted to implement this, the ME would be in an UPROAR. Also, if memory serves, Afghanistan was not the aggressor when the Soviets invaded. Not in front of a PC to look that up, but I'm pretty sure I'm right.

You may see this as a flip-flop on my position, but there was a little story on the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan that I thought was interesting. Before everyone goes all source-happy on me, no, I don't have any, and a quick Google isn't turning up much either. For all I know, this could be bullshit but it raises a good point. Apparently during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, a squad of Soviet soldiers had sporadic skirmishes with a band of Afghans. During one skirmish, the Soviet squad was able to capture a handful of Afghans. After the Soviets disarmed and restrained the soldiers, and in full view of the captured Afghans, the Soviets dipped their rounds in pig blood and began to execute every soldier save for one, who was released unarmed to return to his camp. The skirmishes on the squad stopped.

I thought for a sec you bought another bike, Andy.

Not sure I've had that, always up for some decent micro's. Thanks yota for the date change.

It's actually the 19th, Thursday. I'm an idiot, can you change the date on the title?

Literally right across the parking lot from the North Market on High St.

I always thought that skinny fuck was a cock block...

One trip down Wenceslas Square will tell you otherwise.

shenaniganry.

I laugh at that, and challenge you to come try it and say it to my face. I'll buy first round.
